First steps as a Scout in Nerd Fitness Academy.
One of the exercise paths I picked was the Scout. This is about running, biking, and swimming, but even earlier than that for me comes walking. Walk before you run and all that.
The first on-foot Scout quests in the Nerd Fitness Academy are to run for five minutes without stopping and to run a mile, but there are general quests I want to work towards first:
1) "Walk a 10k. (6.2 miles)"
2) "Go for a jog - any distance!"
For now, I'm just going to build up my mental and physical endurance by getting out occasionally, 1-2 times per week, and getting used to walking. Today challenged me on that front. It was cold (2F degrees with about -10 windchill), and I wasn't used to walking.
But screw that. I'm a Minnesotan now. So I bundled up and went for a walk, just in a square around the neighborhood.
1.37 miles, 24:45 minutes.
Good start on the scout's path.
